Dude I’ve been trying to quit porn for years. I’m way better than I used to be and I just broke up with my girlfriend. I made it 11 days. Still hit the gym every day but wtf. I’m an idiot.

Yep. We’ve all been there. It feels bad, but what can you learn from it? If you just feel the pain, it’s not as valuable as getting curious and learning what you can from it. Broke up with the gf? That will cause stress and some strong emotions that probably don’t feel great. That will lead to some strong urges. What can you do to manage those feelings instead of masking them with porn? It may be a setback, but it gives you lots of data to work with, so learn everything you can from it, commit to doing better, and then let it go.

Brian is right, take it in stride. Quitting this shit ain’t easy and you gonna have times like this. The thing to remember is that being easy on yourself is infinitely better than beating yourself up, leading to more relapses. Get back on the horse and make this your last relapse.

Bro it happens, to help prevent it from happening again, dont beat yourself too much for messing up, yes you should mourn your decision and strive yo change, but you can't do it allow. Seek God, he will give you peace of mind to not run to porn, weed or anything. He won't condemn you for your past, only build you up stronger so you don't repeat the mistakes.
